Freedom of Speech and Censorship

You and me both, have to pinch ourselves
from time to time, along with most everyone else on this platform.
The things that are posted here at times can be outlandish, brazen, out right ignorant, mean and disheartening .
They can also be funny, wise, witty, sarcastic, friendly, smart ass or loving .

Alot of my comments don't warrant a reply I don't normally expect one unless it's a  question. Then still no one is obligated to anseer. I actually don't care one way or another
What I do care about is the fact you said "doesn't warrant attention"  everyone's post warrants attention one post is not more important than another.
That's not a good attitude to have.

I do not, have not, do not want to, "shadow" you BTW  SHADOW- A feeling or cause of gloom or unhappiness, or
A dominating prescence or influence, or
An imitating or inferior version, or
A detective or spy that follows the trail of another
Clearly I am not guilty of any of these definitions
If it helps you to sleep at night thinking that what you say would warrant a shadow then you may use me that way .

You flatter yourself dear I don't have the time to discuss you with anyone
I don't believe anyone on this platform uses their time to discuss you or the things you write if they do it's not with me

To think I need to have someone to tell me what to say is absurd I can come up with meaningless random bullshit on my own. I don't discuss any of my comments outside of the thread on which they were posted

Thank you for the definition of staunch
I can use it in context now

Just don't let us catch you referring to Hillary Clinton as a vagina or there will be hell to pay!

You are a staunch supporter in all things you believe in.
Your words carry weight,  you have alot of experience with debate because more often than not people don't agree with you which has made you skilled in debate

You can bite the head off someone replace it with a flower and think it's ok
You can offend others and waltz off in a twist denying any wrong doing
You publicly gloat over the choices you have made while burying others under a pile of shit
Nothing I have said is mean or bully
Can't help myself you remind me of my mother

Thank you for the link that's what I was looking for

Real facts matter. Yes.

American lives matter! People do need to talk. Please do.

Remember some die for love, essentially saying #lovematters more than life itself!

40% of the world is predicted to riot this year!

Please, #lovematters ...more than change!

No more war. 🕊💖

Jess, have you taken so much as an hour to educate yourself by watching 13th? Or read any of the literature, or watched just one of the Ted Talks or the movie Just Mercy, all of which have been resourced in this thread?  Because if you have not, then let me tell you that you preaching Love Matters is out of pure white ignorance. The kind I grew up with. The kind that covers up #Blacklivesmatter with all lives or white lives or blue lives or love matters.

Love is a verb not a noun. What are YOU doing for love other than preaching its name? How can you lead others if you don't know or understand the true issue yourself?

Just say #Blacklivesmatter without the suffix "but so do. . ." and I'll take your campaign seriously.  Just say it and leave it. . .

#Blacklivesmatter

I Am Not Your Negro is so moving.  You have to know what the problem is to fix it.  To begin to fix it.

Just Mercy is on Prime, rent price 0.00.
